PRISM: The Reviews

It is with a strong appreciation for American and international academic institutions and their scholars that PRISM publishes this collection of Book Reviews. This compilation of previously published reviews is intended to serve as a resource and baseline for scholars and educators in the field of complex operations, and covers a wide range of issues including reconstruction, stabilization, insurgency and counterinsurgency, statebuilding, whole-of-government approaches, and irregular warfare operations. Whether referencing citations, developing class syllabi, or merely keeping up with the literature at the forefront of security studies and foreign affairs, PRISM is confident this issue will provide valuable insight. The growing literature based particularly on the past several decades of experience has promoted noteworthy debate in the policy, practitioner, and scholarly communities, and PRISM encourages scholars to reexamine authors’ personal chronicles, theoretical inferences, and contemporary world experiences. As always we are grateful for your interest in and support of PRISM, and welcome your feedback. PRISM
